What is the gap?
The gap is the infinite moment that is present in between two thoughts. It is a moment that once immersed in, leads to infinity and enlightenment. The gap is the place where you will no longer believe in God, but will in fact know Him/Her. (That'll shake 'em up as it did me a few years ago 'till I finally figured out the absurdity of the gender thing).
How do I enter the gap?
It is that moment when you make the decision not to immerse yourself in thoughts of the past or the future. It is a now moment (the only one there is) in which you get "out of your mind", literally, since to be "in the mind" is to be with "thought" of some kind. It is to "be present" in a state of no thought.
Sounds crazy, I know, but it works with practice. It is that state of being able to hear that "still small voice" but only in that space that is 'no thought'.
This is true (non-verbal) prayer. Try it sometime. And when you get totally confused and frustrated call me and I'll confuse you some more.
